Instant Power

Power is available immediately and recharges while underway through the engines.

Improved Efficiency

Eliminates generator fuel consumption, leaving more fuel available for cruising.

Greater Independence

Stay comfortably at anchor longer with reliable onboard power for overnighting and extended

adventures.

Premium Victron Lithium System

This boat's advanced Victron lithium battery and inverter system delivers efficient, modern

power management with fewer moving parts and a cleaner onboard experience.

lithium power provides greater comfort, convenience, and freedom on the water.

expanding the yacht's overnight accommodations for guests. Combined with the Seakeeper

inventory. With the same proven design, premium equipment, and offshore capability that have

made the 38 Explorer so popular, this model presents exceptional value without sacrificing

features, performance, or warranty coverage.
